User Groups

The User Groups feature in AnalyticsCreator enables administrators to manage access permissions and collaboration rights among multiple users within a shared project. Each group can include different members with distinct access levels, such as Group Owner, Read/Write, or Read Only. This ensures secure teamwork and proper authorization when working across the same data warehouse environment.

User Groups are particularly useful for team-based environments, where control over data modification, deployment permissions, and administrative responsibilities must be clearly defined.

The User Groups List displays all defined collaboration groups. From this screen, users can search for groups, view their access rights, and perform actions such as creating, deleting, or leaving a group.

1 Search Criteria Filter existing user groups by name or partial keyword.
